Thanks everyone. Just started on that last rim and I'm taking pics of the process, so I'll do a writeup. I'm gonna go back an take off the lug caps and paint them black too. May just use fusion for them though...

Thanks man!
Haven't done the lug caps, but I'm definately going to. I'll probably just clean them up, wetsand them (1000 grit) and paint them with some Krylon fusion.
The centercaps and wheels both got sanded with 1000 grit.
